Why come to Lyon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

With one of the highest number of restaurants per inhabitant in France,
Lyon has
often been recognised as the countrys food capital. In 1935, food critic
Curnonsky,
aka the Prince of Gastronomy, described Lyon as the world capital of
gastronomy.

Geographically well situated at an intersection of poultry, wine, fruit and
vegetable producing regions, Lyon elevates these goods at the heart of its
gastronomy.

So come to Lyon to discover French cuisine and to fall in love with it!
